AI Features Shine, But Usability Needs Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I really love the AI features in Notion, which are incredibly helpful for organizing my tasks and schedule. The AI allows me to communicate tasks that I have, such as papers I need to read, and it automatically categorizes them appropriately, creating a task list that ensures I don't forget important things. The Notion AI acts like a chatbot, which is exactly what I was looking for to help organize my schedule and tasks seamlessly. This feature saves me the time and effort of manually inputting and categorizing information, letting me explore and manage my workload efficiently. Setting up Notion wasn't difficult at all, as I started from scratch and found that the AI assistance was the easiest way to get started, helping me quickly adapt to using the software.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find learning how Notion works a bit difficult, as I'm still learning and exploring its features. The complexities in using the chatbot interface to manage structured tasks and categories prove to be slightly overwhelming. Additionally, there are instances when creating reminders is unreliable, as it doesn't always work as expected. These aspects make the experience somewhat complicated for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to organize my schedule and projects. Notion AI categorizes tasks automatically, reducing the time spent on manual organization and helping me keep track of tasks to prevent forgetting them.
Promising Tool with a Steep Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate that Notion has the potential to connect with numerous other applications, providing a promising hub of functionality. Although I'm still familiarizing myself with its capabilities, I recognize its uniqueness and the category it fills for my needs. I'm excited about the immense possibilities that Notion offers, especially in organizing and storing data like my music, MP3s, WAV files, and notes. Furthermore, its potential to compile and organize my data in high-quality formats is very appealing. The idea of Notion as a central server for all my information, working as an email hub, is intriguing. I am keen on harnessing its full potential to improve the workflow of my music and business initiatives.
What do you dislike about the product?
I struggle with Notion as I find its interface to be somewhat messy and unintuitive. While it seems promising with its range of connectors, I'm not tech-savvy and have found the setup and understanding of its capabilities to be complex. The AI features seem disconnected from the overall intuitive process, making it less user-friendly. Additionally, despite its potential, I have yet to see it deliver the highest quality solutions I need for my music and business projects. There's a learning curve I haven't fully overcome yet, and I'm uncertain about how to integrate all the features effectively.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to centralize my music database and explore its potential for business integration, but I'm still learning its complex features.
Notion Boosts Team Collaboration, and Notion AI is Game Changing!
What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity of pages, but also has the ability to utilize complex embeds. Notion AI and Agents are a gamechanger. I can keep my team connected with a single knowledge base which makes planning, getting alignment, and answering questions so much easier. Notion is easy for all team members to get started with, and I use it nearly every day, including Notion Mail and Calendar.
What do you dislike about the product?
The text selection shortcuts are counter-intuitive and differ from most other applications. As an example: "ctrl + Shift + Up" moves a whole line up, but in every other application that would just select the remainder of the line from that point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easily structuring and centralizing knowledge. The new AI features make it much easier to query across the entire corpus, and the writing improvement tools greatly enhance the quality of notes and layout of the document.
Flexible, Intuitive Organization of a Wide Variety of Information with Powerful AI
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is one of the best ways I've found to organize information, particularly for a group of people to use. I like the database-first approach that gives me the flexibility of presenting the same information many ways across the workspace. I also like the attention to design -- it is very intuitive to work with. Finally, the text editor is also excellent -- the feature set is robust but it gets of your way to allow very fast input.
I also want to mention that their latest update with AI agents is a leap forward over chat windows. The ability to have a Master Prompt and a database of detailed prompts that I can direct the agent to works really well. The fact that I can pipe the output directly to my workspace, in whatever way I tell the AI to add it, has saved me huge amounts of time.
I use Notion more and more -- in both my own business and for other organizations I belong to.

What do you dislike about the product?
It works really well, but a feature from a paradigmatic standpoint I do like Roam Research's more free-form "structure as you go" mentality for personal journaling, ideating and day planning. Notion requires more up-front planning about how to structure a workspace, but unlike Roam I have been able to successfully include non-technically savvy users in my Notion workspaces.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion as a knowledgebase for the Community Water System that I volunteer to manage. Our state regulatory agency requires us to keep a mountain of information, and at our last inspection I didn't even bring the old three-ring binder. Instead, I opened a laptop and was able to refer quickly to each part of our system documentation that the inspector needed to validate. I imagine that the Notion database will be much easier to hand off to the next generation of leaders of this organization than an out-of-date three ring binder.
I also use Notion to qualify and capture leads for my ghostwriting business -- all with AI. The AI searches the web to find prospects and completes a research dossier on each one, along with a suggested outreach script. It saves me huge amounts of time doing the repetitive work that is hard for me to focus on -- leaving me more time to do the creative work I enjoy.

The Ultimate Academic Organizer and Writing Assistant
What do you like best about the product?
Honestly everything, Notion and Notion AI helps me stay organized and makes my coursework so much easier to manage. When I'm working on complex assignments like my WRT 120 working draft about indigent defense systems,Notion AI can quickly distill my ideas into concise summaries and find the perfect words to express what I'm trying to say. The organization tools in Notion combined with Notions AI ability to help me refine my arguments and find synonyms keeps everything and anything about my academic work structured and polished. It's like having a writing assistant and organizer in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
its lack of transferability with scheduling I would also really like to see an alarm feture

**Keeping your coursework organized** - With multiple classes and a major writing project due, I help you structure your thoughts and keep track of your work in one centralized place.
**Refining your academic writing** - I help you articulate your arguments more effectively, whether that's sharpening your thesis or exploring different phrasings.

Notion Makes My Job Easier!
What do you like best about the product?
My favourite feature is the AI Voice Assistant. I use it weekly to compile meeting notes and provide actionable insights. It's hugely easy to use and implement into our existing stack.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've not yet found anything I dislike about Notion, though I do find some of the UI to be confusing when first approached (such as when trying to go back to a previous page, a link must be used instead of clicking back on a project).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mostly use Notion to track my projects, but I use it for weekly meetings to go over project next steps, and it provides actionable steps without having to actively have a note taker.
